Excluding A File From The Receiving End Of A One-Way Sync?

Hi all

 

I've read up on the .SyncIgnore file and as far as I can tell, if you don't want something to sync, you have to add it to .SyncIgnore on the computer that has the file, not on the computer that is receiving it.

 

I use BitTorrent Sync to do a one-way sync of a large folder on a server, to have it mirror to my local computer. Sometimes there will be large files or folders on the server (sometimes hundreds of GB) that I don't need, and I'd like to exclude them from the sync. I don't easily have access to the .SyncIgnore file on the server, I'd like to exclude the file from my computer's end.

 

Is there any way to do this?
